 As advertised.... August 28, 2008

Yes, it IS made in Germany (at least that's what the label says). Hard to beat for the price and, while the wheel does have a slight wobble, it doesn't seem to affect sharpening as the wobble appears to be parallel to the shaft. Further, the issue is mentioned in the instruction manual so it's an apparent "engineered feature". Overall tool finish is typical Grizzly, heavy duty, but maybe not the best machining available. It should be mentioned that the 220 grit wheel is probably $75 by itself.
I can't vouch for longevity, but compared to the overpriced Tormek, it's a bargain. The real question is if you'd be better off with a decent 8" bench grinder and some water stones in place of this much more specialized sharpening system. If you have room for both, you won't be sorry you bought the Grizzly.

The product was as written. The case is a bit cheap, but at the cost, can't really complain. The grinding wheel does not seem to spin true. I took the wheel off several times and still the wobble while turning. I have not physically used the grinder yet so don't really know the effect, or if it even has one when sharpening. I will have to wait and see. Overall, very please as it seems to be another great product from Grizzly.
Great equipment for the money..... June 5, 2008

I looked at the Tormek and just could not justify the $400 bite for the unit. Nothing else came close, until Grizzly came out with this unit. It runs smooth and does exactly what I want and need it to. It sharpens tools quickly and easily. I have not tried Tormek accessories, but I've heard that they will fit this unit. Whenever I find that I need something that Grizzly does not have an accessory for, I'll try it and then update my feedback.
